Happy Holidays! There are some great things cooking. If you have not picked up Jason Chan and Android Jones downloads linked in the banners above, please do so. We are working on a huge expansion for conceptart.org and are doing everything we can to raise funds to make it happen. What better way can we do so than to offer the most affordable professional art training vids anywhere. I hope you guys enjoy and CA needs and is thankful for the support!

Jason

P.S. the release dates may change...back or forward...but this stuff is in the oven now. and is smelling reaaaal good. Can't wait to share it with you guys.

how about a SPECIAL pack.
like 40$ for all of them.
or you pay 50$ but get 8 videos or something.
(you could also make a credit/subscription thing.. make it cheaper for people who want
to pay upfront ->more $$$ in a shorter amount of time for ca)

paying 60$ in december for videos is going to hurt my need for bread and ramen.

yes, they are cheap.
yes, no one is selling something as cheap.
but i have to ask anyway.

We already have them priced so cheap that they are basically free. Some of y'all wont be happy til we are paying you to watch them!! haha.

The ca school costs less money for the students than it costs ca to run it, the downloads are a measly ten bucks, the workshop charges only what it costs to run the site and the event..what more can we do here? Seriously. We already are doing everything we can to make this affordable and many of us put in 40-60 hours a week of volunteer time making this place run. Pushing any lower would mean that we have to start charging so you can participate on conceptart.org. If you want the vids any cheaper, I can set it up so CA members can pay a monthly fee to be on these forums instead. The choice is simple there. This place is expensive to run nowadays...something has to support it's growth and progress. Right now that something is the videos, which we could be charging 3-4 times as much for per the current market price but are not. We have no interest in any other business models at this time (paid memberships, or other programs). Any cheaper and we simply would not be doing it. They take a ton of work to make and we have to do things which support the growth of this community. Everyone loves that it is free, and the only way to keep it that way is to find biz that will pay for it. Prices will go up a bit in the future due to increasing costs that are upon us. Max we see them priced at is 15 bucks so enjoy em at ten while you can.

LEVEL UP! - ConceptArt.Org online workshops are on sale- Join now and get 25% off!

This is an amazing deal, there's no room for complaining. The fact this community runs so efficiently with so many opportunities and tools available, and it's FREE!: realistically this shouldn't even exist. It's quite evident that those who make CA happen know the ups and downs of being an artist, and sympathize with us, from a great website to $10, HIGH quality videos!!! We're getting workshop quality (even more, maybe) for the quarter of the cost!!! I think that is simply amazing. I just wanted to say thank you, this made me so happy waking up this morning, I can't wait.

yeahyeah.. i knew how you would answer as soon as i hit the SUBMIT REPLY button.
i dont think you should or CAN make them free..
i just saw all the videos coming this month (some even in two parts) and my credit card started to cry.
and wanting something cheaper does not mean that i wont buy.
I was in Amsterdam and i bought the two other videos (the cheap dollar is a help).

anyway.. you seem to be doing the best you can (the guy with the 60h needs a break) and there is simply no one else that cares about teaching and training people like you (and your fellows).
This whole board feels like a movement sometimes.. and its strange to suddenly pay all that money if you are used to getting it free.
I think that some numbers would help people like me.. how many videos were sold? What do you have to pay too keep this thing running?
Seeing the actual numbers might make me even look dumber and anoying.

I'm definitely gonna cough up 50 bucks for these, haven't decided which ones I'm going to get but the one about color theory sounds interesting. I just gotta activate my Visa electron for internet use asap.

to anyone who complains about price...
these vids are priceless man, I mean to someone like me who has no schooling on art whatsoever...this is a freaking blessing.
Keep up the good work guys, I for one appreciate all that you do. ALL and I mean ALL my improvement is because of CA and the guys behind the scenes, and if I could I would pay a hell of a lot more than that. Thank you.

10 bucks is a fukn deal *slaps moneys on table* I'll take me six of those and a shot of whiskey...no no, on the rocks.
